Toshiba CB30-102 review

 

Chromebooks are Google's vision of how a modern laptop should be. Generally they're lightweight, relatively cheap, and feature an interface optimised entirely for web use.

The usual caveat of ‘Chromebooks aren't for everyone' of course applies, but the Toshiba CB30 is a very useable and capable laptop for anyone who spends the majority of their computing time online using Google services. The increased screen size is a...

Toshiba Chromebook 2 review

 

Toshiba has updated its 13-inch Chromebook model with the new Chromebook 2, boasting improved components and a gorgeous IPS display. We spent some time with it to see if this really is the new king of the Chromebooks. This is the only Toshiba...

If you're happy to live in the cloud for the majority of your tasks, then Toshiba's Chromebook 2 is currently the best way to do it. The device is light, fast, and that screen is worth the money alone. Chromebooks are quickly coming of age, and this...

Toshiba CB30-102 Chromebook review

 

We're seeing more and more Chromebooks making their way onto themarket and the CB30-102 is the first from Toshiba. With itslightweight chassis, Intel Celeron processor and 13.3-inch HDscreen, can it deliver the goods it promises?

Solidly built, decent screen, good battery life, low price

Less than full-HD screen, a bit on the bulky side

As Chromebooks go the Toshiba CB30-102 is one of the moreluxurious with its 13-inch screen and relatively fast processor. Itsuffers from the usual Chromebook issues -- really needs aninternet connection to be at its best, limited in its array of apps--...

Toshiba's CB30-102 13.3in Chromebook – imagine a tablet with a keyboard

 

Review The typical low price of a Chromebook suggests you'll not be buying into a quality product with pleasing design aesthetics. Yet it seems that the brains behind Toshiba's latest Chromebook weren't going to be swayed by such presumptions.

Toshiba Chromebook CB30

 

Toshiba's CB30 is one of the best Chromebooks we've seen so far, but its screen isn't great

Good styling ; Comfortable to use ; Full-sized HDMI port and SD card slot

Screen is very glossy ; Screen definition and contrast could be better

Toshiba's Chromebook CB30 possesses good styling and a useful array of features. At 13.3 inches, it's also a comfortable Chromebook to use. Importantly, it performs swiftly and can do a good job when streaming Web video. However, it has a screen that...

Toshiba Chromebook 2: A Feast for the Eyes

 

We often complain about the effects of the race to the bottom – the race to the lowest possible price, regardless of what effect that has on overall quality. For more than a decade we've seen very little in the way improvements in display quality on...

I have to admit that when I first saw the pricing on the Toshiba Chromebook 2, I was skeptical. When you have $200 (and sometimes less) alternatives like the Acer C720 floating around, and with a lot of Chromebook users going that route due to pricing...

Toshiba Chromebook 2 CB30-B Review

 

Successful follow-up. A bright IPS screen in Full HD resolution, over 7 hours of battery life and a noiseless device starting at less than 400 Euros (~$444) is here for the taking. However, Toshiba's new lineup totters in terms of stability and...

Bright Full HD screen, IPS display, System performance, Fan-less design

Keyboard's drop, Restrictions in the OS, Matte screen only available with low resolution

The manufacturer has successfully launched on the market a solid Chromebook in the form of the Toshiba CB30. We observed just as many positive as negative aspects throughout our tests. Starting with the casing, we can call the feel, the low weight and...

Toshiba CB30-A3120 Chromebook Review

 

The Toshiba CB30-A3120 Chromebook is a good addition to the Chromebook family, offering a strong ChromeOS experience despite a poor screen and construction. Keep reading to see what we like about this budget laptop.

Cheap ; Portable ; Good battery life ; ChromeOS

Dim, low-resolution display ; Subpar touchpad ; Poor speakers
